Abstract

The fuel economy of an internal combustion engine is improved by incorporating in the lubricating oil used to lubricate the crankcase of said engine from 0.25 to 2 weight percent of a fatty acid ester of glycerol, such as glycerol monooleate or glycerol tallowate. The fatty acid ester can be added to lubricating oil to form a lubricating oil composition.

Description

SPECIFICATION Method of Improving Fuel Economy of an Internal Combustion Engine and Composition Therefor This invention relates to a method for improving the fuel economy of an internal combustion engine.
With the crisis associated with diminishing amounts of fossil fuel and the rapidly increasing prices for this fuel, there has been a great deal of interest in improving fuel economy, that is, the number of miles obtained in a given vehicle per liter of fuel.
Some fatty acid esters of glycerol are known in the industrial oil area, for use at low concentrations, some are known to be oiliness agents; however, since piston and ring lubrication is predominantly hydrodynamic, gains in fuel economy through the use of additives in the lubricating oil which reduce the coefficient of friction in mixed lubrication will probably be small and difficult to assess.
It has now been found that if 0.25 to 2 weight of a fatty acid ester of glycerol is added to the lubricating oil used to lubricate the crankcase of an internal combustion engine a measurable improvement in the fuel economy, that is, the miles per liter of fuel, of the engine is observed.
Adding from 0.25 to 2 weight percent, and preferably from 0.40 to 1.25 weight percent of a fatty acid ester to a crankcase lubricating oil significantly improves the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine. Specifically, improvements in fuel milage of from 2 to 3% on the average or more have been observed in engine tests. This fuel economy improvement can be obtained in both compression-ignition engines, that is, diesel engines, and spark-ignition engines, that is, gasoline engines.
Fatty acid esters of glycerol can be prepared by a variety of methods well known in the art. Many of these esters, such as glycerol monooleate and glycerol tallowate, are manufactured of a commercial scale. The esters useful for this invention are oil-soluble and are preferably prepared from C8 to C22 fatty acids or mixtures thereof such as are found in natural products. The fatty acid may be saturated of unsaturated.
Certain compounds found in acids from natural sources may include licanic acid which contains one keto group.
Preferred fatty acids are oleic, stearic, palmitic, myristic, palmitoleic, linoleic, lauric, linolenic, and eleostearic, and the acids from the natural products tallow, palm oil, peanut oil, corn oil, neat's foot oil and the like.
Particularly preferred acids are oleic acid and the acids from tallow.
When glycerol is esterfied with a fatty acid, mono-, di and triesters form. Commercial glycerol mono-oleate, for example, contains a large amount of dioleate and a minor proportion of trioleate. Mono-, di- and triesters and mixtures thereof are contemplated for use in this invention.
When, for the sake of convenience, the common term such as "glycerol monooleate" is used, the di- and trioleates are to be included within the meaning of glycerol monooleate.
The lubricating oil to which the fatty acid ester of glycerol can be added can be any hydrocarbonbased lubricating oil. The hydrocarbon lubricating oils may be derived from synthetic or natural sources and may be paraffinic, naphthenic or asphaltic base, or mixtures thereof. A variety of additives are ordinarily present in lubricating oils used to lubricate modern internal combustion engines. These additives include antioxidants, dispersants, rust inhibitors, foam inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors, antiwear agents, and a variety of other well-known additives.
